Integrated RV sensors
Regular hard disk drives can impact the performance of a multi-bay system by generating 'knock-on' vibration. The MG Series ensures high reliability by minimising vibration effects through their advanced control and sensing technology. Multiple sensors detect the slightest shock and built-in RV (Rotational Vibration) sensors compensate for any rotational vibration detected, eliminating the possibility of 'knock-on' vibration in multi-bay server systems.
Keeping your critical data safe
Your data is critical so don't risk it. Toshiba's advanced technologies have been developed to add security and assurance to the enterprise user. With Persistent Write Cache Technology your data is safe in the event of an interruption in power supply during a write to the hard disk. Data is saved in the large flash-based cache and written to the disk when power is restored.
Advanced Technologies
Toshibaâs innovative Stable Platter Technology minimizes vibrations by stabilizing the motor shaft at both ends. And that means improved tracking accuracy and maximum performance during read and write operations. In addition, Toshibaâs Dynamic Cache Technology, a self-contained cache algorithm with on-board buffer management, optimizes how the cache is allocated during read/write to provide the high-level performance demanded by real-time domains.
High storage density level
The Conventional Magnetic Recording (CMR) HDDs with capacities of 12TB or higher use a helium-sealed design, providing the power-efficient capacity and storage density needed by cloud-scale and enterprise storage solution providers to achieve their TCO objectives. They also utilise Toshiba Groupâs laser welding technology to ensure the helium remains securely sealed inside the drive enclosure. The MG11 and MG10 Series feature a 10-disk platter design.
Toshibaâs unique technology approach
Writing data at the densities required for high-capacity HDDs calls for an advanced, innovative and reliable approach. Toshibaâs MG11, MG10 and MG09 Series HDDs feature Flux Control Microwave Assisted Magnetic Recording (FC-MAMR) technology - a simple and elegant technique that uses microwave energy to ensure more of the write energy is focused into the platter, achieving an increase in areal density capability (ADC) of up to 20%. Toshibaâs technology uses conventional writing methods while eliminating the drawbacks of other MAMR approaches, allowing MG11 HDDs to achieve capacities up to 24 TB.
Flexible Format technology
The Toshiba MG11 (24 TB) and MG10 (22 TB, 1-10 TB) hard drive models are designed and engineered to support either 512e or 4Kn sector formats on one hard drive by simply reformatting. This feature, available for SATA and SAS models, ensures compatibility with both legacy as well as future systems. By eliminating the need to keep stock of different block size HDD models, cloud-scale infrastructure is able to optimise logistics and inventory management to achieve lower TCO.
Store more - with flexibility
Enterprise users need flexibility - the MG Series meets this need with a choice of 6 Gbit/s SATA and dual-port 12 Gbit/s SAS interface options as well as block size on demand (512e, 4Kn, 512n). Additionally, there are options for Toshiba hard drives with Self Encrypting technology or with Sanitize Instant Erase (SIE) technology, which means that in an instant all data is erased, without the need for overwriting the drive for hours.
